Tag: hour

Welcome to the 77th round up of the Tuesday Photo Challenge! This was a week filled with wonderful hours and allusions to them!

The hours chosen varied in your posts for this theme, but all of them had creativity and wonderful work in common! As photographers love this time of day, I was not surprised to see a lot of great golden hour images. Then some of you also found clocks to let us know the hour. The one post that surprised me most, was one that had me going cuckoo! You’ll be sure to find it when you read through this awesome set of contributions!

Thank you all for playing this week and making my reading that much more fun!

And here’s the morning hour, even though I’m not really an early bird…

Morning’s Fire

This is an image from my commuting series. When my job didn’t have the same time pressures that my current one has 🙂 This is Rocky Pond in Boylston, MA, which allowed me to get some wonderful images throughout the seasons.

The following were this week’s participants in the challenge with links to their posts:

Sarah kicks things off again this week in By Sarah, with an hour that many of us like to encounter: Happy Hour! Go check it out and enjoy it!

Sheena’s post in Leaking Ink is definitely touching in the way she describes that hour that is more special than any other hour!

Nicole regales us with a beautiful set of photos in Une Photo, un poéme, showing the true colors of the golden hour!

Welcome to Week 77 of the Tuesday Photo Challenge. A quick update, as I’m slowly getting caught up. Last week’s round up will be posted tomorrow, at which point, I will have everything back in sync for the days that follow.

The amount of entries for last week’s theme of Signs were fantastic! This week, I went back to Scotland from just over 4 years ago for inspiration and came across this image from a walk along the beach in Cromarty. The time of this shot was just after 9 p.m. on May 29th; the Sun sets pretty late at that time of year, which makes for a rather lengthy ‘golden’ hour of highly saturated, rich, warm sunlight. This inspires this week’s theme of Hour.

I’d like to challenge you to document an hour of the day in your image(s), in a way that captures some of the essence of that hour. As always, let your creativity take free rein, so it’s perfectly fine to include some time reporting device in your image (did I hear you think sun dial?) or take the hour in the direction of your choosing. Most of all, have fun with this!

Here’s that walk along the beach…

Walking the Beach by Cromarty

We’re looking toward the North Sea, which is on the other side of the hill ahead; across the Cromarty Firth we could see what appeared to be oil drilling platforms being constructed.

The full rules of this challenge are in TPC Guidelines, but here’s the tl;dr:

Create a pingback link to this post, so that I can create a post showing all of the submissions over the week (note: pingbacks may not appear immediately, as my site is set up to require approval for linking to it; helps against previous bad experiences with spamming)

Have fun creating something new (or sharing something old)!!

I hope that you find the right time to capture your favorite hour! Looking forward to seeing them!
